he's (supposedly) not with the company anymore but cornette literally complained that brandi rhodes got to say "goddamn" on TV but he can't "tell a chicken joke,"

but then he also complained that A WOMAN said goddamn instead of a manly man

It's like...

They're doing something different and I respect that, and they've got fun segments and guys I really like, and every time I think about watching again they double down again and I'm reminded again of a certain TMBG song. https://youtu.be/Ow-nuHCTA5E

Per PWInsider, part of Marty Scurll's new deal to stay in ROH (and simultaneously become their head booker) is he's allowed to continue NWA stuff too. Part of why Aldis came out at the end of the ROH show last night

Pretty much, the bad behavior still hasn't changed behind the scenes and standing by Cornette even after he was canned isn't a thing they seem like they want to undo. For those who still want to bother with the PPV tomorrow (I'm not among them), here's the card for Hard Times:

TV title tournament:
Tim Storm vs Ken Anderson
Ricky Starks vs Matt Cross
Zicky Dice vs Dan Maff
Question Mark vs Trevor Murdoch
Tim/Anderson winner vs Starks/Cross winner
Dice/Maff winner vs Mark/Murdoch winner
Finals match between the winners of the latter two matches, winner is TV champ

Non-tournament matches:
Rock n Roll Express (Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson) defend the tag titles in a triple threat against Wild Cards (Thom Latimer & Royce Isaacs) and James Storm & Eli Drake
Aron Stevens defends the National title against Scott Steiner
Allysin Kay defends the women's title against Thunder Rosa
Nick Aldis vs Flip Gordon

Marty Scurll will appear
